So about Viera and Hrothgar.

[MidoNomu]

So we all know the reason behind Hrothgar and Viera not being able to wear helmets and the issues that it came with, so I was wondering will they eventually add this? Or will they be helmtetless forever? Regardless I like how both classes turned out but i would've liked more beast like feet for hrothgar though.

They stated the devs went behind yoships back and modified like 550 head items for Viera and hrothgar.

They will update it gradually, prioritizing by user request. They will mention the wearable items in future patch notes.

It's planned that the rest of the headgear will be implemented at some point. They also can wear glasses (as the poster above me said, devs went behind Yoshi-P's back for them and other items) and any helmet that replaces the head, so Chocobo, Namazu, Moogle...

I don't think they were helmets though. Doesn't look like they have any helmets, or hats right now at least. It would be cool if they eventually get helmets, though I think if they did, other than maybe hats, it would require some heavy modification.

If they do do it hopefully they do it right, instead of just having ears clip through the top or something.

I mean like, Ninja helmets and full plated helmets on hrothgar, not just glasses and such.

Given that most of the issue with Hrothgar and Viera have been clarified as time related issues, I wouldn't be surprised if they later went back and added full helm functionality. It just likely won't be coming for awhile, especially since the asset artists have already crunched themselves to death trying to get what we were given and very much need a vacation.

That's what I'm sayin, I'm curious on how the ninja helmets will look on them, all I can picture is how awful some helmets look on Charr in GW2.

Given the way some of the ears look on Viera, I don't think they really had the intention to include helmet functionality, to be honest - if you look at how the ears are positioned, especially the floppy ears. Now Hrothgar, I think hats and stuff could actually fit them a lot easier.

Didn't Fran wear a helmet? I mean it shouldn't be too impossible to design them similar to what she wore. Yes it would take effort in designing different types but I think fran's model is a good start
